Our Kingston Young Carers Project has been pleased to partner with the Young Carers Illustrations Project to help make pictures to improve recognition and support for our youngest young carers. This includes a storybook about fictional young carer bunnies from the imagination of highly talented artist and illustrator Ana Graça.
You can hear Ana explain the background to her book:
You can also watch Ana reading her book:
Primary school aged young carers from Kingston helped Ana with lots of ideas for pictures and a story book. These provide fun ways of explaining who young carers are and discussing their needs and feelings with them.
You can order a free copy of Ana‘s picture storybook “Young Carers in Bunnyland”. This comes together with a special activities booklet called “About Me”. Copies of these can be supplied for free on request along with a special sticker sheet that goes with it by emailing the Young Carers Illustration Project at : jbangsuk@icloud.com
